There’s really only one important thing to take away from the new trailer for The Sims 3 Ambitions expansion .

Kyle Gray and Kyle Gabler, of Henry Hatsworth and World of Goo fame, respectively, have formed a new studio, along with Experimental Gameplay Project co-founder Allan Blomquist. In announcing this new “Tomorrow Corporation,” the group managed to lampoon both indie developers and large studios, with statements like, “The secret to a truly great indie game is that special human touch, which our producers have scheduled for insertion shortly before the product ships.” Tomorrow Corporation has yet to announce a game, though it has been working on ” an actual real game for months now .” If only there was some sort of developer-centric event, maybe one with a specialized indie component, during which they could make an announcement.
